Perca - in the picture the village centre - offers fun and action in winter at the Plan de Corones, which is located on the south side of the valley. On the other hand, the north side is quiet and relaxing - dreamy mountain villages and valleys on the southern slope of the Gruppo delle Vedrette di Ries invite to excursions in the snow.
